Summary of Application Experience
Great experience! ^__^ So much funner than I had thought. I loved traveling out to different states and meeting tons of current leaders as well as future peers in the medical field! :D
Above I have listed most of the schools I applied to. In truth, I have received far more interviews than I had anticipated when first applying.
Penn was my first choice from the start -- an exceptional program with awesome people! Withdrew from all waitlisted schools within the same week of that acceptance letter!
I attribute the success of my application to Jesus Christ alone. <3 Prayer helped me more than anything else.
Summary of Experience:
I was wowed before the interview day. Wandered with fellow interviewees around campus and hospitals -- awesome place. However, Interview Day was a bit lacking ...maybe because I had higher expectations but who knows! It\'s still Hahvahd....
Summary of Experience:
Good school overall. Warm location. My only bad experience occurred here as my student interviewer was being very unprofessional, but maybe it was just my luck - I\'m not impressed if the students were all trained like this...Withdrew before decision was made.
Summary of Experience:
One of my top choices...Really enjoyed my stay there. Didn\'t have quite the same feelings I had here as I did towards Penn, but it was truly an exceptional school in every way.
Summary of Experience:
My top choice from the start! Can\'t believe it!!!!! GOD IS SOOOOO GOOD!! makes me realize that I should never worry when God is on my side!!! <3
Romans 8:31
Penn was incredible. It blew me away and reassured its place at the top of my list after interview day. I felt like I belonged. EVERYone was friendly, hard-working, and fun (students and admin.). I felt like family during my stay in Philly. An amazing school -- it may just be the one? :D
